Im himmel gibt’s kein Bier darum trinken wir es hier

On Saturday, Elizabeth, Oliver and I went to Oktoberfest in Cotati. We went early and got a great parking place. We picked up our lunch tickets and enjoyed a small feast of schnitzel, wurst, potato salad, cucumber salad, a thick slab of dark rye bread, and apple cake all washed down with a stein of rootbeer.

O was particularly enthralled by the stein and apple cake. He also had no interest in sitting still for very long so we spent most of the time at the nearby park, where we could hear and see the band but not distract people with a squirmy toddler.

Before we could head home, O had to rush the band. Thankfully they were good sports about it and posed for photos with him and Elizabeth.
